How did you celebrate passing your boards?

Published

I'm set to graduate in December and plan on passing my boards ASAP (hoping anyway...). I was thinking of taking a little trip or something and that got me curious...

How did the rest of you celebrate the big day??

Y'all may give me new ideas anyway.

Will be celebrating graduation this December by going on a trip to Cancun to let my mind do nothing but focus on eating lots of food that's bad for me and frying some brain cells by drinking XX Lager and Cuba Libres in a Bali Bed by the beach.

When I pass the boards I'm going to by a bottle of Johnnie Walker Blue Label and share it with the physician that hired me.

I hadn't told anyone, even my husband, when I was taking mine. I told my DH I was going to the chiropractor! I passed the beginning of October, and have spent the last few weeks busy with credentialing, finishing out my RN shifts, etc. Tomorrow night my in-laws are throwing my a big party at a Mexican restaurant by our house to celebrate graduation, passing the AANP boards, and getting a job. :)
